Hi, my name is Sandy.
I'm an artist/designer in Perth, Australia. This site showcases some of my creative projects. Sorry the pictures are grainy sometimes - I usually take photos with my cameraphone because it's quick & easy. Find more of my work at sanlive.com.

Work work, zug zug

There’s a new powder box out.

Haven’t had much time for creativity otherwise, save for stuff that’s part of my day job. I’m almost halfway through the writing course now. Trying to get a few intermittent work-from-home days so I can squeeze some progress in between the daily tasks. Meanwhile, my lucky pardner gets to play Red Dead Redemption every night while I slave over a hot keyboard.

Sorry for such a measly update; hope to have more to say in a few weeks. :)

marbles

marbles (2009) is a 32-page mini-zine of exercises for chipping away at the stuckness of writer’s block. This is my personal collection of tricks that have helped me in the past.

From the foreword:

I have been writing in earnest since I was very young, and have been through many bouts of writer’s block. I gave up writing for years, thinking I would never write again. Now, I write for a living – articles, copy, research, creative non-fiction, zines.

This zine is A7 in size, colour, stapled, about 10g.

would you like a copy?
